"I'm having trouble with my homework. Could you help me?" Lena's message read.

According to 10TV, instead of not responding, Lt. B.J. Gruber, the officer who runs the page decided to help.

"What's up?" Gruber responded.

"I need a little help with my homework," Lena wrote back.

"Ok with what?" Gruber answered.

The problem Lena had was (8+29)x15.

Draper's mother, Molly, finding the exchange humorous, posted screenshots of the conversation on her Facebook, then shared by the department, racking up thousands of shares.

Unfortunately, Officer Gruber's answer ended up being incorrect due to the Order of Operations, as Facebook commenters pointed out.

“Hoping it is truly the thought that counts since apparently I cannot!” he joked. “Especially since the answer was wrong, it was very nice for Molly to acknowledge our attempt to help her daughter with some math homework.”
